how you feeling today?

 

[Megg33k]

Not bad. Funny tummy, as its been "too long" since I ate last. Nothing much more... I think my boobs are getting a bit more tender and finally getting some nip pain. But, not much new. I honestly don't know what I should be feeling... but I wish I had proper morning sickness. That would be a great gift right now. I'd like some extra reassurance. I know its more common at 6 weeks though.

How about you? How're you feeling? Noticing much in the way of symptoms?

I didnt get moprning sickness until about 7w 4d...then it didnt stop for six months

I'll take it for 6 months. I honestly couldn't care less! I know I'll be miserable if it happens... but I'll happily take it!

7+4... that sounds SO far away!

I'm a bit like you wishing for a few more definite symptoms sometimes I wonder if what I do feel is all in my head. My skin on my face and neck is so bad so dry and everything I try seems to either irriate or dry it out more cant get any mositure into. I've been getting waves of nausea manily if I dont eat regularly. I think my boobs are started to tingle but as I said sometimes i wonder if I'm making it up. My mum bless her wants me to throw up (as she was sick in all of her successful pregnancies) and I think yeah that would be fine with me but occassionaly I feel like I'm going to be then panic as have a bit of an issue with being sick but if it means this little one is ok then Ican cope with it I'm sure.

Will you get an early scan?

 

[Megg33k]

I totally know what you mean. Sometimes the whole pregnancy feels like I'm making it up! I'm not fond of getting sick, but I'd happy to right now.

Yes, I'll have a scan in another week and a half or so. I'm very scared. I've never seen a heartbeat. And I'm worried I never will.

What day is your scan?

 

[heart tree]

Hi lovelies. I was frying to give myself some time off from ttc obsession yesterday and focus on my emotions and my marriage. Of course I got a positive Opk so that idea got thrown out the window! Luckily we got in a good BD session. Tim has promised me he is up for the task again today. Fx'd. I got my peak on the cbfm this morning but I know my LH surge started yesterday. I think ov will be today. Cd 17. Same as last month.

I did peek in this thread a few times. Thanks for all your thought ladies. You are all so sweet.

Lucy any more spotting? I can't wait for you scan next week. Is it on Thursday?

Megg even if you don't really feel like it, you are indeed pregnant! Sorry you had a rough time with your family.

One of my 35+ girls got a Christmas BFP! This is her first pregnancy. She was waiting for AF so she could start IUI. She has been trying for a really long time nabe announced it to the thread last night before telling her husband ni was the only one around and expressed my excitement. She came back later and said she told her husband and he wasn't excited. He started worrying about how much a baby would cost. She felt heartbroken. Poor thing. A christmas BFP should be celebrated. I tried my best to give her the excitement she deserved.

This is an emotional time of year for a lot of people, isn't it?

Hope everyone is enjoying their time off.

I know that feeling yesterday I felt pregnant but today not so much but I keep telling myself I am and trying to have faith that all will be ok. Yesterday I did a digi test and got a 3+ I then wrapped it up and gave it to steve as a chirstmas present (he's always said all he wants for christmas is for me to be healthy, happy and for us to have a baby I always felt so bad as we should have a 3month old at this time) so it felt really good watching him open his present which said pregnant and 3+ I just hope its a keeper.

My scan is next thursday the 30th I understand the fear I'm terrified. We saw a heartbeat with our first pregnancy and I know it'll make me so happy if we get to see one but it won't elivate my fears as last time when we saw the hb we still went onto loss out little apple pip Its such a confusing time so many different emotions. I'm lucky in one way that they will montior me so will have scans every 2 weeks I hope and hopefully each one will go well.

I understand you having some time away this time of year muct be hard for you so many emotions always here for you whenever you need someone.

A BFP should definitely be celebrated congrats to her but thats so sad her hubby wasnt excited I know steve worries about money a lot but would never focus on it when it comes to having a baby.

The spotting has stopped it didnt last for long just freaks me out to see it everytime I go to the toilet I feel nervous. Yeah my scan is next thursday at 8am so glad its in the morning means we shouldnt be waiting long and wont have all day to worry about it.

Yeah this is an emotional time of year so many things to deal with and think about or remember. I went to church yesterday with my family and apart from having to run out as I thought I might be sick (I wasnt just hungry I think) talked about making a bit of a scene theres no quiet way to get out as its a very old church no electricity all lit by candles so it was beautiful its were steve and I got married anyway I did say a little pray for everyone those who are pregnant those that are trying and for all our angel babies I hope thats ok.

to a positive opk amanda and to you and tim How long are you both off work for? Hope you get a nice long break to spend time together.

 

[Megg33k]

What a shame for her, Hearty. Didn't he realize that ttc and iui lead to babies? That's dpo unfair to her!

I understand completely, Lucy!

 

[Dazed]

Yay Amanda on the + opk!
That sucks about your friends hubby being such a downer!
ATM - hoping I may have or will soon ov. I'm snowed in here so I guess I will play with the pup and make the most of it. Hubby is already getting cabin fever. We don't get alot of snow (hence the snowed in) and as of right now we have close to 8 inches. Yeah, I know, compared to you girls over seas its nothing!

 

[jenny25]

hey girls sorry i havent been about just had some time to myself as i have had been emotionally up and down xxx

 

[NatoPMT]

Hi girls, hope you all had an amazing christmas. Mine not so much. I was at my sisters and have spent the last 2 days switching between being slightly maniacal and very tearful - i got af pains last night and af starting this morning which triggered it. I was ok till i put my 3 year old nephew to bed last night, and i got upset thinking about what i should have been doing this christmas. I had to come home today instead of staying there until tomorrow as i was just too depressed. I am a right little ray of light I can tell you.

hearty, i know xmas is hard for you, i hope you fared better. Peaking is better than crying.

Thats ok by me Luce - hopefully someone heard you

I will say one right back for you that your bean is safe

I have an ultrasound on the 30th too. The best i can manage is ultrasound buddies. It'll do for now.

ultrasound buddies it is for now Whats the ultrasound for?

Sorry you've had a hard time and that AF arrived thats always hard especially if your feeling emotional already but at least John'sback and you can go for it this month a new year BFP would be wonderful.

Dazed sorry your snowed in but if your about to ov jump you OH that will keep you both from getting board

 

[Megg33k]

I often ask the universe to look over us all... whether pregnant, dealing with loss, TTC, or some combo of those...

Sorry this Xmas was so hard. I don't know anyone who has had it easy this year!

 

[NatoPMT]

how did your poppy seeds enjoy their first christmas, megg?

 

[Allie84]

Hey girls,

Nato, sorry it was a rough Christmas. The hormones involved with getting AF in conjunction with Christmas and TTCAL....blah!!! I can see where it would have been hard. At least you can tuck yourself in with some Christmas chocolates and curse the with the knowledge that at least this is a new cycle that won't be 'wasted' as DH is around!!

Hearty, I was thinking of you yesterday. Did you watch Lord of the Rings? I hope it was an okay day.

Lucy, thank you so much for saying a prayer for everyone at church. I could just picture you trying to escape as you felt sick and it being silent! That's always awkward. I'm really relieved the spotting is gone, and understand your nervousness for the 30th. I'm sure everything will go well, though. Justl ike Megg, you both are a bit early for morning sickness and I will remind you both of saying this in 3 weeks when you're both miserable!

Dazed, sorry you're snowed in with cabin fever but at least it was a white Christmas and you will hopefully have a snowstorm baby in 9 months.

Megg, sorry your family are being a bit daft. Don't they realize you're pretty much an expert in this field? You know what you're talking about!


Jenny,

I was somewhat miraculously able to set aside TTC for most of yesterday and even had good old carefree . I am wanting to do something nice in rememberance of my EDD, though, in the next few days and am not sure what to do. What did you guys do? I know Lucy did something nice (candle and rosepetals?) but I can't really remember the specifics and am wanting to do something small yet symbolic.
